MANAGER SMITHS ECONOMY.

Mr.. William Henry Smith, the gen
eral manager of the Associated Press,
may think it is economy and in the in
terest of his association to keep as his
representative in this city, man who
is so keen to control the news from
Utah that he serves without price.
This may be MIR. William Henry Smiths
idea of economy.and of his proper duty
to his employers; but if reliable news
is worth anything, the principle upon
which Mr.. Smith operates is the most
expensive. We don't believe that dur
ing the last five years there has gone
from the Salt Lake Office single Asso
ciated Press telegram that was not in
some sense a lie. Fully three-fourths
of the dispatches are false entirely, the
matter in them being the spawn of the
diseased imagination of the agent; and
as to the remainder, they are so warped
In their wording that they may be
classed as lies. The correspondent will

the fellow is so dirty, mean and partisan

: The CHICAGO Herald says of the in
famous Tucker bill Whatever may be
said as to polygamy as an element of
religious belief, it certainly cannot be
held that financial corporation or q
cooperative society can in itself be IN
lawful. Polygamy is justly attacked,
because it is held in all civilized nations
that nothing can be defended as re]i-
gious rite which is contrary to human
laws in existence before its adoption.
But the property of.the Mormon church
is the joint inheritance of thousands
who are not polygamists, and raid
upon it can be no more justifable than
a similar raid upon the holdings of any
other church or sect would be-. The
present movement is organized rapacity
under false pretenses. No more vicious
law ever passed legislative body"

THERE is one thing over which hon
est men, Republicans and Democrats,
will rejoice when this Congress dies,
and that is, the House will never again
be afflicted with the unfair and glar-
ingly partisan Kentuckian, Carlisle, for
Speaker. During this session Carlisle
has managed to ALLEVIATE very nearly all
the friends he had, and to demonstrate
his unftness for the position which
should be occupied by fair as well as
an honest man. He has now induced
an open break with a considerable and
influential faction of the Democratic
party in the House. Mr.. Carlisle will
be shelved after the 4th of March, and
some man be elected to the Speakership
who can be just and impartial.

A CoNrEMPTIBLE LIAR.

What a contemplate liar the scrofu-
lous-nosed correspondent in this city of
the Associated Press IS, and how vile
and dirty are his methods! A couple
OF county officials take the train for the
east, for the purpose of examining jails
before commencing the erection of a
county Jail for Salt Lake, and the
wretched sot of the Associated Press
Immediately telegraphs that the county
officers mentioned, another gentleman
whom he names, and who has not left
town, land other officials, have gone
to Washington as "a strong Mormon
lobby, Ito work against the Edmunds-
Tucker bill" The dirty liar goes on to
say that these gentlemen have gone to
Washington prepared to give up polyg-
amy, provided the Mormons be not
pressed and that Utah be admitted as a
State, after which they would do as
they please" Perhaps "a more bare
faced, more scoundrejly lie was never
wired by the wretched thing who repre-
sents the Ass. Press in this city. Mayor
Armstrong, one of the gentlemen who
has gone on this lobbying" mission,
doubted If he would have time to go
farther east than Kansas City, even If
he could spend 50 much time as to go to
that city, where it is understood
there is good county Jail.
Probate Judge Smith, young
gentleman born in Utah, and
who has never before been out of the
Territory, has for some time been shap-
ing his business for this trip, which he
takes partly for rest, recreation and
sightseeing and partly on the business
connected with the proposed county
Jail. He expected to visit Chicago New
York and perhaps Boston, if official
duties did not compel his return, but
feared he would be unable to even see
Washington, which lies off the route he
will travel. The Hon. w. w. Ritter, the
other gentleman named as having gone
on this mythical lobbying mission, is in
the city, and his presence at the City
Council meeting on Tuesday was noted
on the local page of the Tribune while
the Ass-Press agent was writing
of him in the editorial columns
as speeding away for Washington. The
The correspondent mad as good ground
for saying that Messrs. Armstrong and
Smith were en- route to assassinate the
Gar or swim the Hellespont, as to
allege that they we're either going TO
Washington or we're setting out as lob
byists. Qne would have been no greater
lie than the other.

THE DOODLE.

The figure which seems to have been
settled upon as representing the sum
the Mormons have expended this winter
in Washington, is $25OO00. It's true,
that every few days it is alleged that
few hundred thousand dollars of
doodle" have been sent to Washington
TO be used to corrupt somebody, and the
aggregate ofthese successive shipments,
if they had been kept track of and
added, would run the amount Of the
corruption fund up into the millions.
It has been charged that enough was
spent to make every Congressman, all
the Cabinet ministers and heads OF
bureaus rich, and provide HANDSOME
fertGHesfor the justices Of the Supreme

SPEAKING OF the labor troubles, q
wit in the New York Tribune reads
the workingmen good lecture when
he says: The real cause of the dissalis-
faction of the mind with things may be
traced to the cursed appetite for liquor,
the indulgence of which absorbs earn
ings and demoralizes their industrial
habits. Around this harbor New
York, Brooklyn and New Jersey City,
$4,000 900 of wage workers earnings
are squandered for liquor per snnum,
and the more wages they earn the more
they drink, and this is the despair Of
the situation"

Court. But these various sums are
only spoken OF generally. When one Oh
the know-alls wants to be definite ne
states the amount OF the corruption
pile to be $250,0.0.
Now it never occurs to those fellows
who are so familiar with the doings OF
Mormons to name the parties to whom
this money is paid, nor the purposes for
which it is. doled out. Sometimes 1t is
asserted that the money goes Ito de-
feat legislation" but nothing more
definite ever heard. A quarter OF
million is a bis pile OF money it is so
much that it cannot be distributed
among a little crowd of men like Con,
gress. in Oue short session without pro
ducing evidence of the distribution.
Jay Gould, the Vsnderbilts, and wo or
three Others might put so much money
out Of sight without any trouble. but
the average Congressman would
be bothered to get away with the
sum and not show that be was
more flush than usual. Then, the
Mormons being a thrifty people, and
bent on getting the worth OF their
money, they should be able to show
something for the big expenditure. So
far as known, three members OF the
House, besides Delegate Caine, opposed
the Tucker bill, and it is hardly among
the probabilities that anybody will
charge that Scott, Collins or Bennett
got any of the lobby fund. Even the
Loyal Leaguers vail not say that the
Mormons have been able to purchase
Senator Edmunds, who is now holding
the bill, and is really the only man who
has stood in the way of the passage of
the measure.0 1t is not worth while to
suggest the bare possibility that the
Mormons have sent no money to Wash
ington, and have not spent dollar to
corrupt Congressman. The same peo-
pie who are circulating the Doodle
story would only redouble their efforts
to spread the lie, and would swear to it.
at the same time, We may express sur
prise Chat the Saints cannot show some
thing for their investment.

How JOLLY the Loyal League man
ayers are, and how confident they are
that the Tucker bill will be passed
This jollity and their confidence are
ravishingly excruciating. Here at
home, the League organ keeps up the
courage of the contributors to the cor
ruption fund by declaring that the pas
sage of the bill is only matter of three
or four days at most, perhaps to
day" then the hand which writes this
encouragement telegraphs 70 the
county: The Gent'les here are much
discouraged at the delay, and begin to
dread another failure of Congress to
assert itself against Mormon treason. u
